Wordless{ish} Wednesday | Before and After

Let me just say, I want to thank those of you who helped me make a decision from this post. It was greatly appreciated as you all know Im very indecisive. Seems like you all agree with me keeping my hair somewhat on the longer side. And glad to know you also prefer my natural color too!

Photobucket

So I've decided to link up with sweet Katie and show you my before & after haircut pics. Please dont mind the background, as it was a car photoshoot taken by yours truly ;)


 What'd ya think?

Im totally lovin' it! Although I do feel lost without those 3 inches of hair. But I love that I can just go in and tell my stylist "Umm, Im thinking a shade darker, just to keep it vibrant, and maybe a few inches to keep it healthy" and this is what I get. I guess thats why I keep going back to her. I swear no matter what I tell her to do with my hair, I always love it. Although, I hate that it always looks so much better when she blowdries it! anyone else have this problem? I just cant seem to figure out how to make the flip with the ends?!?! Ive tried buying one of those really big round brushes but my arms just get in the way when blow drying and it never comes out right!

Oh yeah, and it looks like it might be a tad redder now. I think after a couple of washes the darkness has turned to red. I still love it though.

Also linking up with Wordless(ish) Wednesday with The Paper Mama and A Little King and I.

help!!!! hair dilemma!

I need some major help. Im am so indecisive when it comes to making decisions. Even just where to eat dinner tonight (any suggestions?). And tomorrow I finally made an appointment to get my hair cut. The last time I got my hair cut was before the wedding. That means November. That means a looooooong time. (yes Im not only indecisive, Im also a procrastinator).

And I absolutely love my hairstylist Jennifer. Ive been going to her since I was in highschool. But she also works full time as a medical assistant (i think, not exactly sure what kind, but I know she wears scrubs lol).  So basically she only works at the salon every other Saturday. Which is reason number one that I have waited so long. I know, not really an excuse, but still.

So again, now that its Friday evening I have to figure out how I want my hair done. Here are a couple of my arguing with myself points:
  • Descision #1: How much do I cut? I love my long hair. I always dream about getting a short little bob, but seriously? I look like a mushroom with short hair (maybe Ill show you one of my highschool pics and then you cant argue with me on this point)
  • Descision #2: What color? Now this is where it gets a little tricky. I love/hate my natural color. Its like a medium to dark brown. I also love highlights. However, with highlights it requires alot of maintenance (problem: refer to paragraph 1, procrastination, doesnt help maintenance) Plus, Im not sure on the whole color treatment issue while pregnant, and if I get pregnant soon (which were hoping for) then will it be an issue keeping up my highlights? So dark mysterious brown? Or Light brown with highlights? Or Dark with red highlights?
  • Descion #3: Bangs or No Bangs? I like the whole long side-sweeping bang thing, not really too into the whole blunt bang across the forehead though. However, my general manager at the restaurant hates long sweeping bangs because they are aways in the way and Im constantly messing with my hair during work. But I just think they take away from my huge forehead thing going on. lol
So, how do I make a decision you ask? Well I spend all day on the InStyle: Hollywood Makeover site and try on hairstyles. Which in the end makes it even more difficult. So please, Im asking, no BEGGING you to help me decide before tomorrow mornings hair appointment.

 

Thank you all in advance!!!!
